That includes efforts to enact or strengthen voting ID laws in eight states last year, including Texas.
“Hands down, in 2011 voter ID was the hottest issue for state legislatures,” said Meagan Dorsch, the NCSL public affairs director.
Of the eight states that approved laws, five are tied up in legal challenges or face Justice Department scrutiny.
